๐Ÿฅ‰KnowledgeableJo Knows Adventure

โ€œi'm very disappointed because i was looking forward to make a notes of course and had a great tour plannedโ€

๐Ÿฅ‰KnowledgeableJo Knows Adventure

โ€œthe dining areas were just I don't know what it is about the Cafe Garden Cafe in the morning um that it either is not as big as the other ships or what but in the morning if you didn't get there early or whatever you it was like a Feeding Frenzyโ€

๐Ÿฅ‰KnowledgeableJo Knows Adventure

โ€œthe seas were too choppy and windy and so the captain decided that it was for our safety not to goโ€

๐Ÿฅ‰KnowledgeableJo Knows Adventure

โ€œThe only problem was I think I think Viva NCL Viva made a mistake and that they didn't offer reservations because it was a packed house and it's the first real show that we've had for the you know this is day five and it's the first actual you know show.โ€
